Green Tea and Cancer

Green Tea vs. Cancer Plus
It was the emperor of China in 2737 B.C., Shen Nung, who was accidentally served green tea by one of his servants, and liked it. Nung gets all the credit for the introduction of this amazing drink while alas, the servant remains anonymous.

Word spread around China that the emperor was drinking green tea, and it spread widely, unbeknownst to its imbibers of its health benefits. Medical scientists do know.

Can it help you? A new report by researchers at Case Western Reserve U., Cleveland, OH 44106* says it probably can--in the prevention of cancer as well as for heart disease and auto-immune (aging) diseases.

Outside the study, we were told by Dr. Hirota Fujiki, head of the Cancer Research Institute at Saitama, Japan, that his extract was being tested both at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center in N.Y.C., and at the U. of Texas in the TREATMENT of cancer.

Fujiki had earlier revealed that green tea reduces our production of TNFa**, a culprit in the causation of multiple sclerosis and rheumatoid arthritis. For a report on green tea use in asthma, CLICK HERE TO ORDER THE BOOK
